Another sitcom from the Two Pints team

The BBC3 team behind the teenage orientated comedies Two Pints Of Lager and a Packet of Crisps and Grownups are working on a new sitcom pilot.

"Coming Of Age", which will be filmed in front of a live studio audience in London next month, is about five teenagers. In the episode Jas, DK, Tom, Lucy and James "suffer the delights, surprises and embarrassments of being 17".

Coming Of Age has been written by Tim Dawson, a previously unknown writer who is just 18 years old. The BBC said: "This is a witty observational sitcom written by someone who currently knows what it is like to be a teenager".
